Texting! Texting I don't have to keep asking people to repeat themselves (usually I can't hear for the kids in the house) and if something needs my attention asap I don't have to put the person on hold or hang up with them fast.

I prefer talking to most people but texting helps when my kids are going nutso and need my attention and I have a sister who loves to call several times a day and chat. Texting helps me keep talking to her but not have to try and do it right then and there LOL.

Texting. The only time I'd rather call someone or have someone to call me is in situations where the phone call is going to be less than 30 seconds. For example like when I'm picking someone up I'll call and say "Hey I'm here" and they will be like "Ok on my way out." Call ended.

I think texting is so impersonal. If I want to talk with someone I call and we talk. I will text if it is nothing more than-we are on our way-thats about it. I think it is quicker to pick up the phone and ask a few questions or catch up then text and wait for them to respond and then text a line or two and then wait. It is quicker to talk then to text-at least for me and my friends.

depends on who im talking to. most of the timei prefer text being my kids get noisy and my 2 yr is a busy body so have to get her down from something or out of something every time i turn around and hate that hold on i gotta get jess off of.... text doesnt have to be answered the very second you get it..
